Sylvan LaCue is back at it with the self-produced single ‘Guilt Trip.’ It’s his third release off his upcoming album Apologies in Advance and it picks up where ‘Best Me’ and ‘Grateful’ left off. Icy keys provide the backbone for the beat, while heavy bass and slapping drum work drift in and out. Lyrically it’s what we’ve come to expect from…

Just released is the new collaborative album from Mass Appeal Records and HBO, a definitive soundtrack to the viral show Silicon Valley (Season 4). Amongst tunes from the likes of Run The Jewels and Nas, there is a wicked single from Hudson Mohawke in the form of ‘Passports.’ Featuring vocals from Remy Banks, this grimy slice of rap is full…

Block Society’s LEViT∆TE has been slaying the (electronic) trap game with forward-thinking slappers for a minute. 808 Mafia is a crew of trap OGs founded by Lex Luger and Southside. Their sounds helped to form the foundation of what electronic trap was built upon and they’ve been slaying the rap game ever since. Today, LEViT∆TE has connected with 808 Mafia’s Fuse (‘Moves’)…

Berkeley, CA duo ÖMÖ need to be on your watch list. Hot off a collaborative rework of Cashmere Cat’s ‘9’ with nøll, comes ‘Muevelo’. The track is easily their strongest work to date, combining hypnotic loops with snapping trap drums. An exotic middle-eastern vocal sample is paired with some filthy sub bass for a TroyBoi-inspired sound. Tight vocal chops and…

Long Beach emcee Vince Staples is back with a new project entitled Big Fish Theory. The sound perfectly balances classic West Coast bounce (‘Big Fish,’ and ‘745’) with more forward thinking electronic soundscapes (‘Love Can Be…’ & ‘Yeah Right’) . The latter is a straight up speaker blower produced by Flume and Sophie. Oh and if that wasn’t insane enough,  Kendrick…

Top contender for song of the summer right here! Continuing with this dancehall inspired sound, Champagne Papi blessed fans with an official release of the song the OVO team used for the recent Louis Vutton fashion show. Produced by his right hand man Noah “40” Shebib, the track features an infectious riddim combined with the pop signing we’ve come to…

You know we’ve been fucking with TroyBoi from time. The hitmaker from across the pond blessed fans with a single from the upcoming album Left is Right. The single, ‘Hooper’ features Healthy Chill spitting a mean verse paired with a hypnotic beat. The production on this is fresh and TroyBoi continues to build on his sound by crafting a bounce…

Sydney based producer Hydraulix has been consistently killing it. Whether it’s with originals like ‘Headbang’ and ‘Jam Dizzle’ or remixes of Herobust and Dirty Audio x Rickyxsan, when Hydraulix puts his name on it, you know it’s a certified slapper. Setting the bar higher once again comes the title single of his new EP Madness. With Kei Leeza on the mic,…

Earlier this week MST. slid into my DMs with a promise of weird and experimental music. Generally unsolicited Twitter submissions are quite lackluster but MST. proved to be an exception. His new EP See You Space Cowboy… is an anime inspired adventure built off his personal favourite series Cowboy Bebop. Whether you’re a fan of the show or not, you’re sure to…
